Villa Carlotta and Grand Hotel Tremezzo wedding photographer, Lake Como

Villa Carlotta and the Grand Hotel Tremezzo on Lake Como stand right next to each other. Both are used very often for couple portraits on location, and for many couples they are part of a boat trip on the lake.

Two venues, one stretch of shore

Because the villa and the hotel are neighbours, you can move between them on foot. For photographs this means variety without long transfers: gardens, gates and views at the villa, the grand facade of the hotel next door.

Combine it with a boat trip

Many couples combine their portraits here with a boat ride on Lake Como. You arrive on the water, step out at the villa and are back on the boat for the golden hour. We plan the timing with you so that it all fits.

Good to know: weather and parking

Keep an eye on the weather. Portraits in the gardens and a boat trip both depend on it, so plan a plan B and a flexible schedule.

Parking is difficult. If you are not a guest at the Grand Hotel Tremezzo, finding a parking space becomes very hard. Plan your arrival, your guests and your team with that in mind, and ask your planner early.
